Title: Compact disc storage package
Inventor: O'BRIEN PATRICK J
IPC: G11B23/02
Filed: 1992-11-17
Granted: 1995-06-08
Abstract: A storage package (10) for a compact disc or the like has a plurality of non-plastic panels (12) including a pair of end panels (12a,12c) and, optionally, at least one panel (12b) intermediate to and connecting the pair of end panels. The plurality of panels (12) is movable between an open orientation (Fig. 2) enabling access to the contents of the package and a collapsed orientation for storage purposes, each of the panels having a pair of opposed lateral sidewalls (19), and the plurality of panels in the collapsed orientation defining at least one spine (32,34). A holder (14) formed of plastic is disposed on one (12b) of the panels for receiving and maintaining a compact disc thereon. An end cap (16) is disposed on one of the end panels or pivotally on the holder (14), the end cap being adapted to releasably engage the holder when the plurality of panels (12) is in the collapsed orientation, thereby to preclude accidental movement of the plurality of panels out of the collapsed orientation. <IMAGE>

Title: Stat shuttle adapter and transport device
Inventor: DEYOUNG THOMAS
IPC: G01N35/00
Filed: 1999-06-03
Granted: 2002-08-08
Abstract: The stat shuttle adapter and transport device includes a conveyor with a movable platform for securement of the stat shuttle adapter. The stat shuttle adapter is a universal holding device that includes a carrier housing having male and female surfaces that engage complementary shaped female or male surfaces of a rack that is held by the carrier housing. The conveyor has a forward load position wherein racks are loaded onto the carrier housing. The conveyor also has a rearward unload position wherein the loaded rack is locked onto the carrier housing to facilitate removal of the contents of the rack from the carrier housing without upsetting the rack. A latch device on the carrier housing is normally biased to a lock position but is maintained in an unlock position when the carrier housing is at the forward load position of the conveyor. A latch engagement device on the conveyor maintains the latch in the unlock position while the carrier housing is at the forward load position of the conveyor. Once the conveyor moves the carrier housing away from the forward load position toward the rearward unload position the latch device is free to move to the normal lock position wherein the loaded rack is locked to the carrier housing. As the conveyor moves the carrier housing toward to the rearward unload position the latch device remains in the lock position. To ensure that the latch device is in the lock position when the carrier housing is at the rearward unload position a latch actuator surface is provided at the rearward unload position of the conveyor to move the latch into the lock position if for some reason the latch remains in the unlock position. <IMAGE>

Title: Method for esophageal invagination and devices useful therein
Inventor: FILIPI CHARLES JOSEPH
IPC: A61B17/11
Filed: 1993-09-07
Granted: 1994-08-11
Abstract: A technique for invaginating the esophagus (20) at the gastroesophageal junction (10) is disclosed, as well as an invagination device (70) useful in the described technique. The invagination device includes an introducer guide (75) which has an outside diameter approximating that of the esophagus and a plurality of needle-receiving lumens (78) extending to its outer diametric surface. The invagination device also has an engagement assembly which includes 10 needles (88), each having a retracted position in which they lie within the needle-receiving lumens of the introducer guide, and an extended position in which they extend out of the lumens and project radially from the guide for engagement with the esophagus at the gastroesophageal junction. The invagination device is introduced transorally into the esophagus, its engagement assembly is activated to place the needles in their extended position in engagement with the esophagus, and the engaged invagination device is advanced the toward the stomach to fold the attached esophagus beyond the gastroesophageal junction. A remotely operable fastening assembly (50), which has been introduced into the stomach through an operating channel/insufflation port, is then operated to fasten the invaginated gastroesophageal junction to the surrounding involuted fundic wall. Finally, the needles are retracted back into their needle-receiving lumens and the invagination device and the fastening assembly are removed from the body of the patient. This minimally-invasive technique accomplishes the formation of a new valve between the esophagus and stomach, thus preventing acid reflux.

Title: Solid nondigestible polyol polyesters containing esterified hydroxy fatty acids such as esterified ricinoleic acid
Inventor: CORRIGAN PATRICK JOSEPH
IPC: A23L1/308
Filed: 1993-10-21
Granted: 1996-04-18
Abstract: Solid nondigestible polyol polyesters wherein the ester groups contain (1) fatty acid radicals having at least one hydroxyl group that is esterified with another fatty acid or other organic radical, and (2) at least about 15% long chain (C20 or higher) saturated fatty acid radicals. The molar ratio of (1):(2) is from about 0.1:7.9 to about 3:5. These solid nondigestible polyol polyesters are very efficient passive oil loss control agents for liquid nondigestible oils. Edible fat-containing products including nondigestible fats containing these solid polyol polyesters can be less waxy tasting due to the lower level of solids required for passive oil loss control.
